The SEIU fired back at Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell after he and other prominent Republicans dismissed the Democratic health care reform package in the Senate as a “job killer bill.” McConnell joined the U.S. Chamber of Commerce in calling on Democrats to scrap the bill and start over.
SEIU Secretary-Treasurer Anna Burger said the coalition “desperate to throw a monkey wrench into the system and kill the bill entirely” now that the Senate is “on the verge of passing real reform.”
From her statement:
“This 11th hour effort to kill desperately-needed insurance reform must be stopped.”
